Expressing satisfaction at the results of the spring football drill, Dead Coach Dick Harlow yesterday said, "We accomplished a lot of work, but we have a long way to go and a lot of work to do next fall. I think we hit harder in spring practice than at any time last year."

We realize that our major opponents are not standing still. We expect all of them to be as strong, or stronger as in 1936.
Russ Allen Improved
